Mister Cooper Music

"Mister Cooper" is the name of my first CD recorded for kids and their families. I had a great time making music with my friends. We sang songs about food, fish, rainbows, gardens, and washing your hands. Some of the songs are ones I made up and some are great, old favorites. We mixed together guitars, accordion, fiddle, trumpet, banjo, tuba, and lots of other instruments, for a variety of sounds and styles. Included in the package are the lyrics to all of the songs. They are also available below. Each CD cover was colored by one of my 2nd grade friends making it a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of art. If you'd like to order one or simply listen to a sample of each track, please click the link for cdbaby.com/cd/mistercooper. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the music. Be sure to sing along...

And they swam and they swam right over the dam. Boop boop dittem dattem whattem chu (3x) And they swam and they swam right over the dam. Stop! said the mama fishie, You'll get lost. But the three little fishies didn't want to be bossed. The three little fishies went off on a spree And they swam and they swam right out to the sea. Boop boop dittem dattem whattem chu (3x) And they swam and they swam right out to the sea. Whee! yelled the fishies, Here' a lot of fun. We'll swim in the sea till the day is done. They swam and they swam and it was a lark, Till all of a sudden they saw a shark! Boop boop dittem dattem whattem chu (3x) Till all of a sudden they saw a shark! Help! cried the little fishies, Look at the whales! Quick as they could, they turned on their tails. And back to the pool in the meadow they swam, And they swam and they swam back over the dam. Boop boop dittem dattem whattem chu (3x) And they swam and they swam back over the dam.
